Trigonale Festival: From Purcell to Handel – a diverse experience!
The Trigonale Festival in Carinthia starts on September 5th and promises some musical highlights in advance. The festival begins with a concert featuring works by Purcell, while the festival concludes with Handel's “Coronation Anthems” on September 14th. The event takes place in an exciting atmosphere between old workshops and Stefan Schweiger's new chamber music hall in Portendorf. He has lovingly converted his old workshop and is ensuring optimal conditions for the artists by setting up three sleeping and rehearsal cabins in Maria Saal. The anticipation for the numerous concerts is great, especially for the appearance of Anita Giovanna Rosati, who will present her skills in two concerts and will also make her debut at the Maggio Musicale Fiorentino in Florence. The choir of the “Sidney Sussex College” from Cambridge will come to Tanzenberg for a CD recording, which underlines the international dimension of this festival, as the Kleine Zeitung reports.
